Loneliness
loneliness is but a whisper in the darkness that we dream..
as thoughts of happiness flicker through,
those momentous memories we seek..
the gut wrenching torture, loneliness brings..
to the person unable to recreate, what it is to dream..
pondering this as i sit in this phase..
of self discovery in this daylights haze..
i realise ive been a victim of this..
self-confused, self abused illusion
that loneliness means the lack of things..
that bought someone close and loving in..
although in truth, loneliness is a figment of self-abusing..
the ability to have it all, yet not see it...
clouded by the thought of whats missing..
a seed with a mission..
and is relentless at reminding...
that freedom from this feeling...
cannot be changed..
until perspective of importance...
manifests a new face..
